Default What's wrong with this car?

Saw this on ebay. Looks to be a decent ride, no mention of being a clone. 9k seems to be pretty light if it's a real Z.

68 Z on ebay

We all know the pictures of these cars have been swiped off of other auctions, websites, etc, and legitimate ePay members ID's hacked. How do you convince ePay these are scam auctions. They are a cash generation oriented auction site primarily interested in the fees these sales generate, scam or not. What proof would you offer them?
The only thing I can think of doing is to contact the hackee, and have them complain to ePay it is not their auction...

I don't think emailing the hackee will work. When these guys gain access to someone elses Ebay account, I would think they change their contact info. Since all these scam auctions require pre approval to bid, potential bidders would have to email the seller for approval. The hackers would have to change the hackee's email address.

You are probably correct, James. I think I will just go ahead and email both of these clowns to see what kind of response I get. Something to the effect of "Hi, I'm new to muscle cars and really like your Camaro."
What do you think?

I will reiterate what the others have said: Scam, stay Clear!! . If you do e-mail them make sure it is with a clean e-mail address, no personal info that could be found out with your account. They are resourceful and I would not want any of my personal info in their dirty hands.
